Epi scleritis - Management and control

Hi All

Been a while I stop updating my epi scleritis condition. I am on remission since my last episode in May 2018.

I am living with epi since 2013 with no underlying diseases. I noticed my epi recur on the same left eye early this month. Is distressing! This time I use pred forte 4 x a day, timolo maleate twice daily and arcoxia 90 mg twice daily. Apart from this, I am on supplements too. I take nuvapine A 320 mg , grapeseed 15000 twice daily, ocumin ared eye vitamins, epo with fish oil and red yeast with CQ10. On the third day I can see the redness reduce significantly. In my last bout, arcoxia 90 mg does not help. I had to be on oral streoid therapy. Possibly because of the supplements I take, arcoxia does help this time. If can take turmeric as well. Turmeric calm inflammation. I am sharing this hopefully those who are in same condition can give it a try. As we know, epi has no cure, no prevention and no known cause. Most ophtalmologists would prescribe oral steroid when all drugs fail. Steroid is a powerful drug and it control your symtoms and do not heal. Healing is left to your body's capacities. Go natural with the right supplement and dose, it helps.

I hope someone who battle epi tirelessly would find this sharing a relieve. All the best.
